All Specs
Dell’s Precision 3240 Compact (starts at $839; $3,047 as tested) is a mini desktop workstation for space-conscious professionals. About the size of a thick hardcover book, it features up to a 10-core Intel Xeon processor and Nvidia Quadro RTX-class graphics for performance that can rival that of larger towers. It also offers good end-user serviceability, VESA mounting options, and a standard three-year warranty. It’s an excellent, if not necessarily superior, alternative to HP’s Z2 Mini G5. You ll get better value out of full-size desktop workstation towers, to be sure, but this model and HP s Mini effort trade blows in the wee-workstation space.
